Texas driver’s license information may have been stolen

AUSTIN, Texas (KTRK) – Hackers may have stolen information from millions of Texas drivers, according to a report from an insurance risk management company.

Someone has accessed driver’s license numbers, names, dates of birth, addresses and vehicle registration histories, according to Vertafore.

The Texas Department of Public Safety and the Texas Attorney General’s Office were among the affected entities.

“Vertafore recently determined that due to human error, three data files were inadvertently stored in an unsecured external storage service that appears to have been accessed without authorization,” the company said on its website.

Despite the breach, the company said no misuse of information was identified.

The files included license information prior to February 2019 and did not contain social security numbers or financial information, the company said.

The company has a long list of information relating to the violation on its website.
